The vote in 906 of the State's 8,167 precincts for United States Senator was: Fess, 79,730; Pomerene, 76,033: Virginia Greene, Independent, trailing along with only 961 votes.

It was a foregone conclusion that the Democrats would carry all dis tricts except the Seventh and Nigh in the balloting for 10 Congressmen, and as the returns began coming in it was apparent that they had gone over the top in accordance with pre- vious forecasts, The other Democratic Congressmen A.
